View Full DescriptionSystem 76 Series
The System 76 alto saxophone, now in its updated second generation, is ideal for the advanced performing musician. The System 76 sax is hammered, engraved, and drawn by hand in a traditional process. This attention to detail results in a more authentic sound and organic response. This series also benefits from the renowned Super VI neck shape, with a wide diameter and a resonant sound. For musicians who regularly gig and require an instrument to consistently perform with, the System 76 series is an ideal choice.
Quintessentially vintage
If you're looking for a saxophone with a vintage aesthetic, then the System 76 is the instrument for you. No doubt the first thing you'll notice about the sax is the vintage finish. Mauriat refers to this as their Dark Vintage finish, and it's truly reminiscent of the instruments you'd find in jazz clubs in the 1930s.
Something you may not have noticed at your first glance is the large bell and bore. This enlarged design produces a warm and fat tone to complement the saxophone's Dark Vintage finish. As an extra special finish, the System 76 features hand-engraved embellishment on the bell and bow which looks truly breathtaking.
The third and final feature which slots the Mauriat System 76 into the vintage era are the genuine abalone key touches. Compared to the pearl keys you'd find on a standard saxophone, these abalone key touches suit the overall aesthetic of the System 76 alto.

When you receive your new P Mauriat saxophone, you will notice that it comes with a few extra accessories. The included soft contoured case will provide outstanding protection to your saxophone. Boasting a lightweight shock-absorbing frame, this case is sure to look after your instrument no matter what happens to it.
